“Murdered cows”
Recently I read a story on the Sunmedia.com website from Editor Chris Doucette about four cows that had been “murdered”.
It seems that during the night someone went to a farm on the border of Welland and Pelham in Ontario, Canada between Dec. 10 and 15, 2006 and just took a knife to the 4 cows for fun. I was compelled to read the story twice because I thought I had miss read it. It turned out that I didn’t.
I’ll first say that I do not condone the destruction of anyone’s personal property or animal cruelty in anyway.
I’m curious how we in our Canadian society have come to regard cows as people. To say that the cows were “murdered” is absolutely crazy!
To say that the killing of the cows was a Senseless slaughter, definitely.
The Criminal code of Canada defines “murder” as "The person who causes the death of a human being”.
A "Human Being"….not a cow.
I am greatly disturbed when I read stories like this because I am seeing more and more in our courts that stiffer jail terms are given to people that kick a dog, than for people that abuse our children.
Time to put the focus back on our children and pass me a burger.

"In practice, people who want to put humans and animals on the same plane do so by degrading humans, not by exalting animals. The result is people like Mr.Singer who deem apes deserving of some human rights that they would deny to human babies and old people."
ReplyDeleteIt is only a matter of time, canada will be like NZ and Spain. "Non-Human-Hominids will be guaranteed special rights. The "Great Apes Project" underlines the similarity between humans and these animals: apes can recognise themselves in a mirror, they have different personalities, their relations can be of very deep feelings and they are genetically 98,5% similar to humans. The main representatives of the project are chimpanzee researcher Jane Goodall, biologist of evolution Richard Dawkins, and the Australian philosopher Peter Singer.They compare their fight against the injustice in the treatment of the great apes with the fight for the rights of women, homosexuals or mentally or physically disabled people".(Great Apes Project from European Vegetarian, Issue 1/2000)
